Home Depot says every hourly employee will get a raise starting this month. Starting pay will be at least $15 per hour in all markets
said Tuesday it’s investing $1-billion in wage increases for its U.S. and Canadian hourly workers.

Walmart announced in January that it would be raising its hourly wage to an average of $17.50, while Target invested $300-million in hourly wage increases last year.
